nil-oases Ho Drawing. Application filed Jnly 18, 1919, Serial No. 311,823.

Specification of Letters Patent.

To all whom it may concern Be itknown that I, Enwalio )1. Jonas, a citizen or the United States, and a resident o Cheshire, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Coating and Sealing Conr pound, or which the following is a specification.

The object of my present invention is the production or a compound available for coating surfaces generally, after the manner and for the preservative effect of the application of a paint, and for sealing purposes generally, as the ealking of cracks and the filling oi? the pores of fibrous materials.

My compound consists of a mixture of a cen'ientitious d1yi'orm product, an oleaginous product in liquid form, a dryer, and coloring matter as may be required.

The cementitious product used. in the production of my improved compound is that commonly and commercially known as Portland cement; the oleaginous product is of a vegetable cluiractcr and that commonly and commercially known as raw linseed oil; and the dryer used is preferably that commonly and commercially known as Japan dryer, coloring matter bcin generally added. in such proportion as -round needtul by the user.

In preparing the compound I purpose using the ingredients in about the following proportions, ViZ.:

Liquid oleaginous product H .35 Cementitious product .55 Dryer .05 Coloring matter, say .05

The proportions of the ingredients maybe plied as is customary in applying paint; and

less oleaginous vehicle and a materially increased relative proportion of the cementitious product being used where the com pound is to be applied for the calking or filling of cracks or the pores of fibrous mate rials, the compound in this latter instance, and particularly when used for the setting of panes or" glass, approximating the con sistency of workable putty: and in any case, through the oxidation thereof under the action of the atmosphere thereon, ultimately assuming the character of a coating and sealing medium of marked firmness or resistance.

The ingredients of my improved compound are readily obtainable as commercial products,- and it will he noted that the conr pound is not only quite inexpensive as regards its production, but highly eflicient as an agent "for the coating of surfaces generally, and the sealing of cracks, including the pores of fibrous materials.

I claim:

1. A coating and sealing compound consisting only of Portland cement, linseed oil, Japan dryer and coloring matter, in substantially the proportions specified.

2. A coating and sealin compound consisting' only of Portland cement, linseed oil and Japan dryer, in substantially the pro port-ions specified.
